That’s my question.

It’s been almost 9 years. Is there anything going up yet or are they still futzing with a hole in the ground? I was at ground zero in 2006 and it didn’t look like anything was being built.

Seven World Trade Center has been completely rebuilt. It was finished in 2006 and stands 741 feet tall. (Original was 610 feet tall.) My friend’s wife works in the building.

One World Trade Center (Freedom Tower) is under construction and about 350 ft tall now. IIRC, it’s supposed to be 1776 ft tall when completed.

The foot prints of the original One and Two World Trade Center (the Twin Towers) were turned into a memorial, and are nearly complete.

For historical reference, workers constructed the 1250 ft tall Empire State Building in 13 months from 1930-31.
